I've attached the topography reports my doctor gave me, and they've suggested I should go for TPRK CXL in my left eye. My right eye has a vision of 66 with a 0.5 sph, so the doctor recommended waiting for three months before taking any action. Im a bit concerned and have a few questions. Is it common to have thin corneas from a young age? How long do I need to rest after this procedure? And what exactly is TPRK, especially considering my thin corneas? Could you help me understand what the reports are showing?

View allDo you happen to know if the eye color-changing product iCOLOUR is actually safe to use? I'm a bit worried about the potential risks, like could it make someone go blind? And if it does change eye color, how long would that even last?
iCOLOUR and similar products that claim to change eye color can carry risks, including potential eye damage or infection, as they alter the natural pigmentation of the iris. It's important to consult an eye specialist before using such products to ensure safety. The effects may not be permanent and can last only for a few months to a year, depending on the product.

I've noticed my left upper eyelid is swollen and it actually hurts when I touch it. Compared to my other eyelid, the swollen one feels a bit hard. There isn't any redness inside my eye, though the eyelid itself seems a little pink. I've been watching it for the past three days, and it hasn't changed at all. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
since it is painfull it can be due to stye use antibiotic drops like gatiquin 4 times a day and gatifloxicin ointment on night and try to have hot compressions on eyelid

Also, how many days will I need to recover? And what's the deal with going back to workcan I return to the office right after the surgery?
In 2 weeks you will be fine after surgery,3 months is needed for complete recovery, take adequate rest and follow your doctor advice.
